Malta with Kids: Free PDF Guide, Comic Book, and Field Game

Looking for a family trip to Malta? Instead of a boring guidebook, take your kids on a journey full of adventures! Download the free travel comic "Malta and Gozo: Small Islands – Big Adventures" and explore the charming corners of Malta and Gozo through fun together.

Family travel isn't just about checking off points on the map, but above all, about shared experiences and time that will remain in your memory forever. With this in mind, I've prepared something absolutely unique for all the little (and bigger!) explorers.

Introducing my new project! It's a unique combination of an engaging comic book, a practical guide, and an interactive field game . It's free and available for download from the link below.

A child holds a phone horizontally displaying the cover of the comic book "Malta and Gozo – Small Islands – Big Adventures," and points to the screen with the other hand. In the background is a view of Malta with the sea, a historic town, and a rock arch; next to the phone are a map, a compass, and a wooden board with the slogans "Comic," "Real Places," "Riddles," "Interesting Facts," and "For the Whole Family." — Malta and Gozo with kids – same route, same places, but two different adventures. The family travel comic "Small Islands – Big Adventures" turns sightseeing into a game full of puzzles, missions, and discovery.

No more boredom while sightseeing!

You have a plan, the children have a mission!

You know that feeling when, after a few minutes of admiring a beautiful monument, you hear a drawn-out, " Mom, Dad, I'm bored! When are we going for ice cream?" ? Traditional sightseeing rarely impresses young children. Children need action and purpose.

That's why I created this comic. Most importantly, it's based on my comprehensive guide to Malta and Gozo.

What does this mean in practice? The comic book route takes you through the exact same attractions I described on my blog for adults . This way, you can explore with my detailed, practical itinerary in hand, while your children have their own comic book adventure. You're in the same place, but everyone discovers it in their own way! The kids are busy searching for hidden symbols or counting colorful boats, and you have space to enjoy the views and sip a coffee in peace.

What is the comic book "Small Islands - Big Adventures"?

Instead of passively strolling, I suggest you follow in the footsteps of the mysterious Golden Knight. On nine fully illustrated pages, you'll find a tested plan for four days of intense adventure.

Inside you will find:
– Ready-made route (4 days, over 20 places): From the historic walls of Birgu and Valletta, through the oldest temples in the world, the blue waters of Comino, to the wild cliffs and secrets of the island of Gozo.
– 36 missions to complete: Tasks for observation, counting objects, searching for hidden symbols and interacting with the environment (e.g. checking the color of water).
– Historical and natural curiosities: Presented in a light, child-friendly form (in comic bubbles).
– Practical tips: What to pack in your explorer's backpack and how to navigate cleverly between islands.

This comic book is best suited for children aged 7–12 . Younger explorers can also participate in the missions, completing them with their parents , while older children can treat the whole thing as a standalone field game.

An illustrated opening board for the family travel comic "Malta and Gozo – A Great Family Adventure." Father Piotr, mother Kasia, son Tomek, and cat Riko are at the center, while a map of Malta, Gozo, and Comino with a four-day route, an old travel journal, the airport, and panoramas of Valletta are displayed. The board explains the rules of the comic, shows mission icons, and encourages children to explore Malta and Gozo together through puzzles, challenges, and interesting facts. — One of the pages of the comic book "Small Islands - Big Adventures"

How to use comics?

It's so easy! You can upload the PDF file to your phone or tablet—kids love interacting with screens, and the interactive nature of the comic on a smartphone is great for traveling or while waiting at a restaurant. However, if you prefer a more traditional approach, I highly recommend printing it out before you go.

This way, regardless of the method chosen, children can follow the route, check off visited places, and complete missions. It's a great way for children to actively participate in the trip and forget about asking, "How much further?"

The comic sits on a stone wall overlooking the Maltese coast; the cover depicts the characters' family, Riko the cat, a seascape, and a rock arch. Next to it are a map, compass, and a board with the slogans "Comic," "Real Places," "Riddles," "Interesting Facts," and "For the Whole Family." The graphic also features the slogan "The Same Malta. The Same Places. Shared Adventures." — You can also print the comic yourself!

Ready for adventure?

Remember – as my comic book advice goes – you don't have to see everything. Choose your favorite spots, slow down, and enjoy the moment. The greatest adventures are the ones you experience together!
